At last. The Master Emerald.
Ultimate power.
Soon order will be restored.
All because of what we have done together.
Such a lovely sentiment, Knuckles.
I think I feel a single tear forming.
Sadly...
You're as useful to me now
as a backstage pass to Limp Bizkit.
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa!
Nailed it.
This guy is always trying to spoil a bad thing!
Ah! You guys are here, too?
Took the long way, huh?
Is everything a joke to you?
Why must you constantly interfere with my destiny?
Because my destiny is to protect my friends and family.
I think I just threw up in my mouth.
And if you want that emerald, you're gonna have to go through me.
Whoa!
The Echidna's taking no prisoners today!
Sonic has heart, but will he lose the quill to live?
I don't want to fight you, but you're not giving me much choice.
Too easy. Let's do this.
Huh?
Why don't you stand still and die with honor?
Let me think about it.
Okay, I thought about it and I pass.
Hi there, beautiful.
You're the real deal, aren't you?
Say goodbye, hedgehog.
Knuckles, stop. Robotnik's stealing the Emerald!
What kind of fool do you take me for?
Just look.
Mine.
Wait! That wasn't the deal.
Oh, you poor, naive creature.
It's not your fault.
A more advanced intellect would have seen this move coming a mile away.
Or 1.6 kilometers.
But I trusted you! You were my friend!
I'm sorry. That just hit me funny.
Let this be my final lesson to you,
you dim-witted celestial skin tag.
Friends...
are open, honest and vulnerable with each other.
Which means X squared times the hypotenuse of Y squared,
divided by the absolute value of friendship, equals...
dookie!
Oh, no.
Chaos is power!
